Veteran

The Guoxing Bank that was attacked was on Willow Forest Avenue in the central area.This avenue is full of willow trees, but due to the season, the thin branches hang down, leaving only two bare rows.

Pedestrians passed under the willow trees in a hurry, but their bodies were tense, as if they could bounce out at any time before an accident happened.

Such a scene is really glaring for a person who takes defending his family and country as his own duty, has a sense of responsibility, and has a strong sense of self-esteem.

Cheng Xiu pursed her lips, and there was no expression on her face, but Cao Yu was connected with him, and naturally knew that he was in a very bad mood at this time, so she reached out and took his hand silently.

Cheng Xiu pinched him and asked Lou Jing where the bank was.

It's not too far from the place where you get off the bus, just two or three minutes' walk.It's just that the way to go is getting more and more depressed, and the people are disappearing. Occasionally, there are patrolmen coming and going, all of them have solemn faces, and there is an inviolable gloomy look between their brows.

Guoxing Bank is a small three-story building, located in the middle of two dozens of-story buildings, like a neglected child.The glass doors and windows along the street were all shattered, and although the glass shards on the ground were cleaned up, the tragedy of that time could be vaguely seen from the empty doors and windows.

There were a few cars parked at the gate of the bank, most of them were escort cars along the way, only a stretched sedan was a fresh face.

Before Cheng Xiu could guess the other party's identity, a radiant silver-haired old man got out of the car.

Leaning on crutches, with his back straight, he glanced at Cheng Xiu from a distance, then turned his head to the car window to straighten his appearance, and when Cheng Xiu walked in front of him, he turned around and greeted Cheng Xiu in a neither humble nor haughty manner: "I am a national Li Guohe, chairman of Xing Bank." Although he spoke slowly, he pronounced the words clearly.

Cheng Xiu exchanged pleasantries with him, and entered the topic as he walked in: "When the bank was attacked, Vice President Secretary Gao Gaiting was in your bank. Do you know what business he was handling?" I asked before, Gao Gaiting had not woken up after the operation, so he came to the bank directly.

Li Guohe said: "He is asking a senior business manager of the bank what business the vice president has handled here."

"How did the manager answer?"

"Because of the bank's confidentiality obligations to customers, we cannot disclose the customer's business content to unrelated third parties."

Cheng Xiu frowned.

Li Guohe said again: "But if it were you, it would be different."

Cheng Xiu said, "Am I the relevant third party?"

Li Guohe said: "Yes. At the beginning, the business handled by the vice president was that when he died unexpectedly, we would hand over the things he kept to you. These days, we have been paying attention to the news of the capital star. It is just that we have not received any information from the vice president. The bad news of the president's death made him stay put. However, I think now is the time to leave it to you."

Cheng Xiu said: "You guys know how to be flexible." If the bank hadn't been targeted by terrorists and was afraid of being implicated again, they would have honestly followed the vice president's instructions and waited until the person was really dead before taking out the things.

Li Guohe said: "Our Guoxing Bank has always taken the prosperity of the country as the goal of entrepreneurship and struggle. It is our honor to serve the country wholeheartedly." After walking for too long and talking too much, he began to feel a little out of breath.

Cheng Xiu asked if the things were all right, and after getting an affirmative answer, he stopped asking him to talk.

The VIP area was the most severely damaged place, with traces of explosions everywhere, and several policemen wearing masks were scanning around with detectors.

Li Guohe paused, and took the initiative to walk in their direction.

Cheng Xiu asked Lou Jing, "Is the detection over yet?"

Lou Jing said, "It seems to be the fifth time."

Li Guohe turned around and said: "Our people completely withdrew after the attack."

Cao Yu suddenly lowered his head and whispered something in Cheng Xiu's ear.

Cheng Xiu raised her eyebrows slightly.

After the inspection, Li Guohe led them to the entrance and exit of the underground vault, and a composite mechanical door blocked the way.

Cheng Xiu leaned over to appreciate it with interest: "It's an old model from 20 years ago."

Leaning on crutches, Li Guohe took out his ID card tremblingly with one hand: "Yes, but we have improved."

"Is there a rocket launcher?" He used to have it on the road outside his office.

Li Guohe was stunned: "Of course not. There is only a physical counterattack."

Cheng Xiu nodded understandingly: "Thousands of arrows are fired at once?"

Li Guohe said: "No... hey, it's about the same." Obviously he was too lazy to explain.

Out of professional habits, Lou Jing checked the surrounding environment: "Didn't you attack here?"

Li Guohe opened the door with his ID card: "No. Afterwards, the branch manager checked twice and found no trace of outsider intrusion."

When the mechanical door opened, there was a heavy "hum" sound.The roof of the promenade automatically lights up two rows of lights to illuminate the road ahead.

The sound of Li Guohe's crutch hitting the smooth metal floor made a crisp sound.

At the end of the corridor is another composite mechanical door.

When this door opened, the first mechanical door closed with a sound.

Li Guohe explained: "This is a customization when we design the door."

Cheng Xiu said, "It looks safe."

"Thank you."

Behind the second mechanical door is the vault, which is empty except for a metal wall made of a safe.

Li Guohe introduced: "We have two vaults, and this one is only used by VIPs." He raised his hand and reached into his inner pocket, "Which safe is it, I kind of forget it."

Cheng Xiu suddenly grabbed his hand and looked into his eyes with interest.

Li Guohe's body trembled slightly, and he raised his eyes to look at him: "Admiral?"

Cheng Xiu smiled slightly, and took out his hand forcefully. Seeing this, Yuan Ke cut the man's arm behind his back regardless of what happened.

Li Guohe struggled desperately, and said angrily: "What are you doing? What are you doing! Let me go, let me go! I'm going to sue you, I'm going to sue you!" He looked crazy.

A group of six people.The other three are Cao Yu, Qiu Xu and Lou Jing, they are all from Cheng Xiu's side, so naturally they don't care.Cao Yu also reached out to search the inner pocket of Li Guohe's jacket.

Cheng Xiu turned her back to them, bent her fingers, and knocked on the safe door one by one.

"This is..." Cao Yu behind him seemed to have touched something, his face changed slightly, but he didn't take it out.

Lou Jing became nervous: "What is it?"

"It's like a ball of plasticine..." Cao Huang withdrew his hand, put it under his nose and sniffed.

Lou Jing went over to sniff it, and changed his expression, "It's Vivienne mud! It's usually used to avoid the inspection equipment. There should be contraband hidden in it!"

"It's this." Cheng Xiu suddenly kicked up and put it on the safe door.

The door was suddenly dented a little.

Cheng Xiu then flew up with two feet.

The others watched dumbfounded as a half-footprint appeared on the safe door.

At this time, Li Guohe had completely fallen into madness, and rushed to the position of the safe hysterically, trying to block it with his body.Seeing this, Lou Jing slashed the back of his neck.

"Kacha", that fragile, old neck was split directly.

The others looked at him wordlessly.

Yuan Ke slowly let go of his hand, and put the corpse on its back on the ground.

Lou Jing broke out in a cold sweat instantly: "I, I didn't expect..."

"Leave that alone, open the door." Cheng Xiu said.

Lou Jing was eager to avenge his guilt and meritorious deeds, so he beat Yuan Ke and punched the recessed door, only to hear a "bang", the door was smashed open.Lou Jing clutched his red fist, and took two steps back without changing his expression.

Cheng Xiu took out the door of the safe and cautiously lowered her head to look inside——

A ticking time bomb moves silently.

Seeing that there were still 15 minutes left, Lou Jing immediately snatched the ID card from Li Guohe's trouser pocket and ran to open the door.

Cheng Xiu still looked down to study the bomb.

At this time, Cao Yu didn't dare to disturb him, but he and Yuan Ke carefully turned over Li Guohe's body, trying to find some valuable clues.

"The door is locked by the master controller!" Lou Jing failed to swipe twice, and did not dare to swipe a third time.

Cheng Xiu said, "Give me a pair of scissors."

Cao Yu took out a small knife and gave it to him.

Cheng Xiu said: "Fortunately, this bomb is homemade, and the old routine was used."

Lou Jing and Qiu Xu felt a little relieved.

"However, it's too dark inside the safe, so I can't see it clearly. This one can't be moved, and there may be something that I haven't thought through... I can't say I'm completely sure." Cheng Xiu muttered to herself.

Lou Jing and Qiu Xu's hearts were raised again.

Cheng Xiu continued: "Do you have any last words to say? It's best to record them with a communicator. If you're lucky, the chip will be repaired when it explodes, and you can leave a last word."

Qiu Xu said with a mournful face, "General, please have a good time."

Cao Yu walked up behind Cheng Xiu and gently put his arms around his waist.

"Hee hee, it's a little itchy." Cheng Xiu said.

Both Lou Jing and Qiu Xu wanted to remove Cao Yu from Cheng Xiu's body, fearing that Cheng Xiu's trembling hand would make a mistake.

"Well...how long are you going to hug?" Cheng Xiu turned around and asked Cao Yu.

Cao Yu was silent for a while, then bit his face hard, then let go of his hand and walked aside.

Lou Jing looked at Cheng Xiu suspiciously.

Cheng Xiu shrugged: "Sorry, our cemeteries may not be built in the same area."
